Part V, the final installment of the series, "The Mothers Act Disease Mongering Campaign," along with links to the first four parts.
 
In the title of a paper in the May, 2009, Journal of Affective Disorders, Stephen Matthey, of the University of Sydney Infant, Child & Adolescent Mental Health Service Research Unit in Australia, asks, "Are we overpathologising motherhood?"

So wrote this comment:

Drugging Unborn Newborn to 3 Year Olds I totally agree with Gregory Kuna. When the article's author was told the "treatment almost never involves (psychiatric) drugs, whoever told her that was just trying to say what they thought she would want to hear. Is it the truth? Probably not. Not only can your toddler not get individual health insurance but they will be growing up labelled mentally ill and will be barred from ever being a police officer, airline pilot and other professions. Plus they will now have a supposededly legally prescribed drug addiction that will cost their family tens of thousands of dollars before they reach age 18. In short a parent's toddler's life will be pretty much totally ruined from the beginning from a dubious diagnosis of generalized behavioral characteristics. These white collar drug dealer marketing magazine articles are getting way out of hand.
